This investigation concerns thermal stratification of the water due to the temperature difference (${\Delta}T=T_{\infty}-T_i$) between the mean temperature of the water in the test tank (1m wide, 1m high, 2.1m long) and the temperature of the inflow water into the tank; flow rate of circulating water and height of the sink diffuser in the test tank. The additional objectives was to observe a stratification phenomena near an interface by measuring the velosities and the temperature difference and investigate an availabilities of the better effective hot water through establishing thermocline near an interface around the bottom of the tank. Following results were obtained through the experiments. 1. When the flow rate was constant and the temperature difference (${\Delta}T=T_{\infty}-T_i$) between the mean temperature of the flow in the test tank and the temperature of the inflow water increased by 5.6, 9.5, 13.5($^{\circ}C$), obtained the better effective advantage of hot water and the stress near an interface increased gradually. 2. When the ${\Delta}T=T_{\infty}-T_i$ was constant and flow rate increased by 4.0, 4.8, 6.4, 8.0 (LPM), obtained the better effective advent age of hot water and the mean stress near an interface increased gradually. 3. When the height of the sink diffuser was 25cm from tank bottom in comparison with 50cm, obtained the better effective advantage of hot water and the mean stress near an interface increased.

안전한 수돗물 공급을 위해 정수처리장부터 최종 단계인 수도꼭지까지 일정 수준 이상의 잔류염소농도가 유지되어야 한다. 하지만 국내 문헌에 따르면 상수공급의 전체 과정 중에 30-60%의 잔류염소가 소실되고, 이에 대한 주요 원인으로 정수처리 과정에서 염소 사용량 감소 추세, 급수배관 내에서 염소분해 손실, 여름철의 높은 온도에 의한 잔류염소 분해 속도 증가, 급수배관의 노후화에 따른 잔류염소 손실, 저수조 내 저장 시 잔류염소 감소 발생 등이 파악되었다. 이러한 이유로 저수조를 거치는 급수 방식의 경우 최종 수도꼭지의 잔류염소 농도가 기준치보다 낮아질 개연성이 높고, 용량과 체류시간을 단순히 고려하는 기존의 저수조 설계 방식으로 인해서 수돗물 공급의 안전성에 대한 우려가 존재한다. 이의 개선 방안 도출을 위해서 본 연구에서는 저수조 내 잔류염소 감소에 관여하는 주요 기작들인 수체 내 잔류염소 분해, 벽체 표면 흡착, 그리고 증발에 의한 물질전달을 수학적으로 묘사하는 공식들과 계수 값들을 문헌을 통해서 획득하고, 일반적 저수조 조건에서 모델 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그 결과 저수조에 유입되는 수돗물 내 유기물 농도, 수돗물이 저수조에 유입되는 수리학적조건(난류 정도), 그리고 저수조 벽체 표면 재질의 흡착능 등이 저수조 내 잔류염소 감소에 주요 영향 인자들임을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 획득된 결과들은 잔류염소 감소를 최소화하여 안전한 수돗물 공급을 가능하게 하는 새로운 저수조 설계기법이나 기술 개발에 유용하게 활용될 것이다.

본 연구에서는 비선형 Peregrine 모델을 이용하여 바닥면이 오목한 이동형 소방용수 저장탱크 내에 용수 공급 노즐로부터 낙하한 용수로 인해 발생한 수면의 출렁임을 수치 모의하고 저장탱크의 수직 벽면에 작용하는 유체 동수력에 미치는 영향을 밝혔다. 또한 기존의 선형 Peregrine 모델을 이용한 수치 모의 연구 결과와 본 연구의 비선형 Peregrine 모델로 동일한 조건에서 수치 모의 계산하여 출렁임의 최대 파고 오름 높이와 출렁임에 의한 동수력 변화를 서로 비교하였다. 그 결과, 저장탱크 내부에 발생하는 출렁임의 움직임과 수직 벽면에 미치는 동수력의 영향을 고려할 수 있기 위해서는 비선형 Peregrine 모델을 사용하는 것이 더 적합하게 모의되는 것을 밝혔다. 이러한 결과는 이동형 소방용수 저장탱크의 안정적인 구조 설계에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The In-Containment Refueling Water Storage Tank (IRWST), one of the design improvements applied to the APR -1400, has a function to condense the high enthalpy fluid discharged from the Reactor Coolant System (RCS). The condensation of discharged fluid by the tank water drives the tank temperature high and causes oscillatory condensation. Also if the tank cooling water temperature approaches the saturated state, the steam bubble may escape from the water uncondensed. These oscillatory condensation and bubble escape would burden the undue load to the tank structure, pressurize the tank, and degrade its intended function. For these reasons simple analytical modeling and experimental works were performed in order to predict exact tank temperature distribution and to find the effective cooling method to keep the tank temperature below the bubble escape limit (93.3$^{\circ}C$), which was experimentally proven by other researchers. Both the analytical model and experimental results show that the temperature distributions are horizontally stratified. Particularly, the hot liquid produced by the condensation around the sparger holes goes up straight like a thermal plume. Also, the momentum of the discharged fluid is not so strong to interrupt this horizontal thermal stratification significantly. Therefore the layout and shape of sparger is not so important as long as the location of the sparger hole is sufficiently close to the bottom of the tank. Finally, for the effective tank cooling it is recommended that the locations of the discharge and intake lines of the cooling system be cautiously selected considering the temperature distribution, the water level change, and the cooling effectiveness.

To use effectively the solar energy in greenhouse heating, a high performance solar collector should be developed. And then the size of the solar collector and thermal storage tank should be determined through the calculation of heating load. The solar collector must be set in the optimum tilt angle and direction to take daily solar radiation maximally, and the flow rate of heat transfer fluid through the solar collector should be kept in the optimum range. In this research, the performance tests of a capillary tube solar collector were performed to determine the optimum water flow rate and the results summarized as follows. 1. The regressive equations for efficiency estimations of the capillary tube solar collector in the open loop were modeled in the water flow rate of 700-l,000 $\ell$/hr. 2. The optimum water flow rate of the solar collector was estimated by the second order polynomial regression and the maximum efficiency was 80% at the water flow rate of 850 $\ell$/hr. 3. The solar thermal storage system consisted of a capillary tube solar collector and a water storage tank was tested at the water flow rate of 850 $\ell$/hr in the closed loop, and obtained the solar thermal storage efficiency of 55.2%. 4. As the capillary tube solar collector engaged in this experiment was made of non-corrosive polyolefin tubes, its weight was as light as 1/30 of the flat plate solar collector made of copper tubes. Therefore it was considered to be suitable for the greenhouse heating system.

Previous investigations have demonstrated that strong earthquakes can cause severe damage or collapse to storage tanks. Theoretical studies by other researchers have shown that allowing the tank to uplift generally reduces the base shear and the base moment. This paper provides the necessary experimental confirmation of some of the numerical finding by other researchers. This paper reports on a series of experiments of a model tank containing water using a shake table. A comparison of the seismic behaviour of a fixed base system (tank with anchorage) and a system free to uplift (tank without anchorage) is considered. The six ground motions are scaled to the design spectrum provided by New Zealand Standard 1170.5 (2004) and a range of aspect ratios (height/radius) is considered. Measurements were made of the impulsive acceleration, the horizontal displacement of the top of the tank and uplift of the base plate. A preliminary comparison between the experimental results and the recommendations provided by the liquid storage tank design recommendations of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering is included. The measurement of anchorage forces required to avoid uplift under varying conditions will be discussed.

본 연구에서는 실제 열 파이프용 수평 축열조에서 등간격인 heating pad 수와 위치 및 공급열량을 변화시키면서 축열조내의 순수 Plume 유동특성을 파악하였다. 동일한 heating pad수를 가지고 집중 배치 형태와 분산 배치 형태를 취하였을 때 집중 배치 형태로 취하는 것이 $5{\sim}6%$ 정도의 더 높은 효율을 얻었다. 따라서 열 파이프용 수평 축열조에서 heating pad를 장착할 때 동일한 heating pad의 수에서는 집중(concentration)배치형태로 설계하는 것이 효과적임을 알 수 있다.

In this study, result of a field investigation of railway traffic-induced vibrations is provided to examine acceptability levels of ground vibration and to evaluate the serviceability of a liquid-storage tank. Free field attenuation of the amplitudes as a function of distance is derived by six accelerometers and compared with a well-known half-space Bornitz's analytical solution which considers the loss of the amplitude of waves due to geometrical damping and material damping of Rayleigh. Bornitz's solution tends to overlap vertical free field vibration compared with in-situ measured records. The vibrations of the liquid-storage tank were compared with the USA, Federal Transportation Railroad Administration (FTA) criteria for acceptable ground-borne vibrations and with the criteria in DIN 4150-3 German standard. Comparing the thresholds stated in DIN 4150-3, absolute peak particle velocities are within the safe limits, however according to FTA velocity level at the top of the water tank exceeds the allowable limits. Furthermore, it is intended to indicate experimentally the effect of the kinematic interaction caused by the foundation of the structure on the free-field vibrations.

본 논문의 모의 실험에 사용한 자연순환식 급탕 시스템과 지금까지 발표된 것 과의 차이점은 다음과 같다. 집열기의 집열성능 계산에 Close의 모델은 시스템의 평 균 온도를 이용하였으며, Mertol의 모델은 집열기의 성능을 일정하게 하여 자연순환식 급탕 시스템의 성능을 계산하였다. 그리고, Young의 모델은 집열기 입구 및 출구 유 체의 평균 온도로 집열기의 집열 성능을 계산하였다. Shitzer, Ong의 연구에서 밝혀 진 바와 같이 집열기 집열판의 온도와 유체 온도는 서로 다르므로, 본 논문에서는 이 것들에서 오는 오차를 줄이기 위해 집열기 순환 유체의 평균 온도와 집열판의 온도를 해석적으로 구하여 집열기의 성능과 순환 유체의 성질 계산에 이용하였다.
